Summary

COVID-19 shifts work dynamics, requiring a new leader: the "Coach Leader.

The COVID-19 pandemic led to two major changes: a shift in work environments and a shift in employees' priorities. Workplaces moved from physical offices with set hours to home offices with flexible schedules. Employees started valuing work-life balance and overall quality of life more than just career advancement. While working from home was initially challenging for many, a 2021 PWC survey showed that over half of the employees now prefer remote work for at least three days a week. However, this new way of working has also brought unique challenges.

To address these changes, a new leadership style is needed: the Coach Leader. Unlike traditional managers who act as superiors and give orders, Coach Leaders act more like sports coaches. They collaborate with their team members, asking for their opinions and co-creating plans. Instead of just supervising for results, Coach Leaders focus on guiding their team's growth and development.
